Which statement describes the reactions in an electrochemical cell

Chemistry

6 0

Answer & explanation:

Summary on electrochemical cells and redox reactions:

Electrochemical cells (or batteries) can be defined as devices capable of transforming chemical energy into electrical energy through spontaneous reactions of redox, in which electron transfer occurs.

Redox it is a chemical reaction in which there is the occurrence of oxidation and reduction of atoms of substances (chemical species) present in the process.

<u>Oxidation</u> is the loss of electrons by an atom of a chemical species, while <u>reduction</u> is the gain of electrons by an atom of a chemical species.

Thus, during an oxirreduction reaction, electrons move from the species that loses them towards the species that will receive them. This "movement" results in the formation of an electric current (or electrical energy) as occurs with batteries, for example.

What is the most reactive metal
ohaa [14]


Some people think its francium and some people believe it is either sodium or potassium.

Some people believe that the most reactive element is francium because the larger the atom, the easier it is to get rid of the valence electrons and the easier it is to react with other atoms. so now if you look at the periodic table, francium has the largest radius and so that's why some people think its francium. but in my opinion, Francium AND Cesium.

In 36 hours the amount of radioactive substance has reduced from 80 mg to 10 mg. What is the half-life of this isotope?
rusak2 [61]
Half-life refers to the time taken for half of the atoms in a radioactive substance to decay. Therefore in 1 half-life the 80 mg of substance will reduce to 40 mg. In another half-life it will reduce from 40 mg to 20 mg, then in a third half-life from 20 mg to 10 mg. Therefore the half-life is equal to the total time taken to decay from 80 mg to 10 mg divided by 3:
t(1/2) = 36 hours / 3 = 12 hours.
